1998 Blue C43

[bc24]

Did anyone know the C43 used to come in blue? There is a blue 1998 C43 near Seattle for sale with 53k on the clock and they are asking 16k. This a good deal if the car has a clean history? I my miss my 202 and I am thinking about picking this up if it is clean. Thoughts? Ideas? Is this color rare?

Check the VIN and records.
See what color it came in

hell yeah brandon, come back to the w202

i have never even seen a c43, let alone in a specific colour- so i guess if its any colour realy... its still a rare awsome car :-)
i have a blue c280, and a few ppl commented its a nice colour, blue does come off nicely tho!

[Denlasoul]

Never seen blue.

Like said above, check the VIN.

Yeah, I am a little skeptical also. What numbers should be in the VIN? Dennis or J, do you know Keros Auto Brokers? That is where it is, I am going to call on it today. I have never heard anyone say they have a blue C43 so its weird. Its blue on black. It looks real, has the seat cushion things...

[Denlasoul]

Any pics or links? It is possible that the car is Obsidian Black as it can look like blue at times.

Dennis, left you a message on your cell...

I think you're referring to Koolvin's.

I don't think it's a C43 though it's a W202.

I kid; those in the know realize those two were official Designo models. Ya, I'm curious about the origin & originality of a blue C43 myself.

-i'm pretty sure its a c43 and i also read somewhere that there really is a blue c43...just can't remember if i read it here or in other mb forums..i might be wrong though

[bc24]

I think, he meant that it was a W202 but not a C43, could be a C36 or C280.

The finish of the blue C43 is, probably Azurite Blue Metallic (#366) as described in this ad:

did all the c43's come with a rain sensing wiper and massaging seats?

I don't think they have massaging seats, when they refer to the orthopedic seats that means you can adjust the comfort level with air.
